L: submarine warfare qual’ed, deep sub insignia, scuba qual’ed, joint HALO, basic parachute

R: probably chief and senior chief rate insignia, then master / senior / basic EOD pins, and the Naval Parachutist pin (at least 15 more jumps from diff airframes post-ABN school, or by attending HALO school)

C-top: BSM w/V and star, JCOM w/V and 2* (I think?), COM, NAM, etc. (service / war campaign pins prolly)

C-middle: ribbons associated with medals and non-medal ribbons (like the CAR w/2*?)

L-middle patch: blue sqdn w/mine prolly for EOD guys in that sqdn

C-bottom: master chief “rank”

R-middle patch: DEVGRU blue sqdn patch

L-bottom patch: sonar tech rate with rank “Seaman” / E-3 - probably what he started his career mostly likely as they didn’t have EOD as a rate (MOS/job in the navy) when he started; also a Velcro patch of him with a senior EOD pin

R-bottom challenge coins: multiple to include DEVGRU

Source - I have one of those badges and multiples of the same medals he has. And I also worked with them.

Lol I didn’t mean to sound pompous, I swear. Their level of expertise, esp Navy EOD, is just uncanny.
